Warrant Issued for Michael Madsen's Arrest

Warrant Issued for Michael Madsen's Arrest

A warrant has now been issued for his arrest, as legal documents show he failed to appear for a hearing last week in his ongoing child/spousal support case.

When Madsen, who is the brother of Oscar nominee Virginia Madsen, was a no-show in court, the judge issued the warrant. Police are looking for Madsen now; bail has reportedly already been set at $26,000.

Earlier this month, Madsen turned up in New York City for a screening to celebrate the DVD release of 'The Bleeding,' an action-vampire flick he shot in 2009 with co-stars Armand Assante and Kat Von D.

Over the years, the father of five has been married three times, to Georganne LaPiere (Cher's sister), Jeannine Bisignano, and his current wife, Deanna Morgan.

In the red financially for some time now, the actor filed bankruptcy back in 2009, with documents showing he was unable to pay personal loans from both Pierce Brosnan ($25,000) and Quentin Tarantino ($1 million).
